Deception Pass State Park Comments & Reviews
Visited Deception Pass State Park Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Deception Pass State Park?
Bowman Bay, within Deception Pass State Park, is simply wonderful! The views in sites 280, and 282 will not disappoint. Back-in, standard site. We had an F-150 long bed and a 27″ pop-up with slide out. Plenty of room to spare.
